So yeah, white balance is a thing. I thought all of the photos I took in our living room had a kind of yellowish tint to them because that’s how we have our smart lights setup. Then yesterday while snapping some xmas morning pics I switched the camera into auto mode so I wouldn’t have to think about anything and that yellowish tint was gone.

Huh… maybe it’s not the smart lights. Maybe it’s me. Maybe I don’t know jack shit about photography. I mean, I knew that already but now I had proof.

So I messed with the white balance settings on my Z5 today and wouldn’t you know it, the tint is gone.

How do you like them apples? I guess I am ready to upgrade from a Z5 to a Z9 now, right?*

*The Nikon Z9 is for sale via the Nikon USA website at the low low price of $4,999.95. Maybe I will get two of them.
